“If you want to hire great people and have them stay working for you, you have to let them make a lot of decisions and you have to, you have to be run by ideas, not hierarchy. The best ideas have to win, otherwise good people don’t stay.” — Steve Jobs (via The Small Wave)

“I don’t have time.”

“I don’t have time to do this” means “I’m not prioritizing this.” You have time - you just use it on other things.

If other people manage to do something and you don’t, that doesn’t mean they have more time; it just means they use their time differently. 

That’s neither positive nor negative; it just is.
